        <![CDATA[ This is a bow that I will be sending to Steve (badger) for speed testing.  The bow is a White Ash backed HHB deflex recurve.  It&#39;s 59&quot; N to N and
pulls about 65# @ 28&quot;.  The bow has shallow D section limbs 1 3/8&quot; wide at the fades and they have a straight pyramid taper to 3/8&quot; nocks.  I
heat treated a few inches of reflex in the bow then glued in a few more with the flat sawn Ash backing, the deflex was glued in.  The bow is keeping about
2&quot; of reflex right now... ]]>

Is Steve finish the tests?
<br>
I start to make one too, but much more simple. Like to work on it, and yes there is a lot of work to make this simple one either. Especially fixing the tips to
the right line. Thinking about to put a thin bamboo belly on and sinewing the back. What is your oppinion should it work well?
<br>
Here is some pics after started to work out the RD form.

Whats your opinion about that. This is just I thinking about because not made yet <img src="http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/frown.gif"> but what about to make the two layer wood from another part of quoter
split an the other ring chased . May it reduce the the limb twist better? Or a bamboo wood combo? ]]></description>

You can get the same problem with deflex reflex bow. I had to give up on a Bamboo backed Bubinga R/D bow a few years ago. String tension was so high it just
wouldn&#39;t stop pulling the limbs sideways

<br>

<br>
Higher brace height is bad for performance, I try to avoid that if possible
<br>
<br>
The good thing about bows that have a high degree of deflex in the handle is that very little limb movement is required to get them to brace. The downside is
that they have... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Nice that u spare me 3 years <img src="http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smile.gif"> Whan I&#39;ll start to laminate a bow a like that will use the first pictures u posted hehe. Thats the last best working
version, is it? Why did u test it with a 600gn arrow, think thats too heavy for flight, or for target to this bow, or just for secure (slow down)?

			<description><![CDATA[ Marc, even I have quit to make laminated bows for a time, this bow turns me on. It remimds me to the Scythian designs(without the deflexed handle section). I
really know the twisting limbs problem with these long recurves you mention, greater brace- height is a solution.
<br>
I´m looking forward to Steves chronos.
<br>
Great bow, congrats!! ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ It took me that long because limb twist was driving me crazy. I finally solved the problem by cutting 1&quot; from each limb tip thereby reducing the reflex
and consequently string tension at brace. Also the shorter recurves were easier to keep the string aligned ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Thanks guys

<br>
I noticed that I had repeated one picture, I fixed that with the one that was supposed to be there.
<br>
<br>
That bow has good cast Bruno and I think it may have more potential but very hard to tiller.  That particular bow only has about 1&quot; of reflex and that
cuts down on string tension which affects performance.  String tension on  bows that are heavily deflexed at the handle and have a lot of reflex gets so high
that the limbs want to twist sideways unless tip... ]]></description>

That bow has a great reflex and little recurved tips. Do you expect a better cast from it than from a more recurved bow such as this beautiful one below ? If
so, why ? Lighter tips perhaps ?
<br>
Thanks.
